Novel Prototype for Handling Arabic Natural Language Processing: Smart Morphological Analyser

Arabic stemming is a technique that finds the stem or lexical root for Arabic words through the process of eliminating affixes attached to their roots. Many studies have been conducted to generate the stem of Arabic words according to the desirable level of analysis, i.e., rootbased approach, stem-based approach and statistical approach. Arabic language, which is the focus of this paper, is a Semitic language which means that it is a derivational rather than a concatinative language. In this paper we implemented an Arabic triliteral Morphological Analyser that is capable of analysing the classical and modern standard Arabic (MSA) effectively and able to analyse vowelised, semi-vowelised and nonvowelised text. the system is integratable with other applications. one shortcomming for the developed system is that the output obtained from the morphological analyser may contain several alternative solutions which leads to extraction ambiguity.
